Chris McNally, who portrayed Lucas Bouchard, is a mystery. Born in Canada on November 8, 1988, Chris McNally, also going by Christopher McNally, is best known for his portrayal as Lucas Bouchard on the Hallmark Channel television series When Calls the Heart.

For John Apple Jack, McNally won the “Best Actor in a Feature Film” prize at “FilmOut San Diego” in 2014.

What Happened to Lucas on When Calls the Heart?

Lucas is elected governor of the state in When Calls the Heart’s season 10 finale. But as he is leaving his Capital City office, a car approaches; all we can make out are the headlights; and he asks, “What are you doing here?”

The tenth season finale of When Calls the Heart, “Starry Nights,” leaves viewers hanging when Bill discovers Elizabeth and Nathan and informs them of an incident involving Lucas.

Elizabeth, Lucas’s ex-fiancée who ended their relationship earlier in the episode, and Nathan, Elizabeth’s ex, appear to get back together when Bill gets his news.

In the penultimate episode, Elizabeth decided to call off the engagement and end the relationship because Lucas was running for governor and, should he win, would have to leave Hope Valley.

Elizabeth stood beside Lucas to express her support as he was elected governor in the season finale.

Does Lucas Pass Away?

Lucas did not pass away. Lucas dies in When Calls the Heart, right? Hearties, you can breathe a sigh of relief—the answer is no.

Showrunner Lindsay Sturman said that Lucas will return alive for When Calls the Heart Season 11 in an interview with Entertainment Tonight following the Season 10 finale.

Everyone can rest assured that Lucas will return for season 11. He has been and always will be an integral part of Hope Valley. However, there’s undoubtedly a cliffhanger and some riddles there that will all be resolved in the upcoming season.

~According to Sturman.

Sturman has confirmed that Lucas will appear in When Calls the Heart Season 11, but she did not specify whether he will stay in Hope Valley or move to Capital City now that he has been elected governor.

This could have an impact on how much of Lucas appears in the next season. Lucas plays a significant role in season 11 of the show, she said.

Sturman also clarified whether Elizabeth and Lucas had a chance to make amends in When Calls the Heart’s Season 10 finale. But as the wedding drew near, Elizabeth started to think about the personal consequences of this important choice. 

“Lucas must step up to save the town as everything around him, Elizabeth, and the rest of the town is collapsing around him,” she said, adding that Hope Valley is in danger.

Elizabeth always had a gut feeling that Lucas had what it took to be a hero, even before he was aware of it in himself.

As he is forced to take the lead to save Hope Valley, their paths start to diverge, and Elizabeth realizes that her ideal existence is very different from his. Her universe has always been Hope Valley, and perhaps it always will be.

Fans eagerly anticipate Season 11 to learn more about how Lucas’ journey from When Calls the Heart affects the cherished town of Hope Valley.

The future of Lucas in When Calls the Heart holds more surprises and tender moments that fans have grown to treasure as the suspense heightens and mysteries are solved.
